The life of fishermen is tied up with seas in more ways than one. It is the main source of his livelihood. It is the only occupation he knows and relies on. He lives for it day in day out. This is the way he supports his whole family. The seas need to be favourable for him to go fishing. Each day he takes life into his hands when he goes far out to get his catch. This is enough to justify that his life is tied to the seas.
